Rajarajeshwari Nagar, usually called RR Nagar, is a residential area in south-west Bengaluru between Mysore Road and the Kengeri–Uttarahalli road. Much of it grew from house-building co-operative society layouts, with apartment blocks added since. This guide uses official records and named sources, and says where data runs out.
Who governs Rajarajeshwari Nagar?
The West City Corporation. PIN 560098 is about 98% West, with Rajarajeshwari Nagara and Bangarappa Nagara wards. It's inside GBA, so stamp duty, cess, surcharge and registration add up to 7.6%. Kengeri, to the west, is different: its PIN 560060 is only about 29% inside GBA. Check your plot with our ward and corporation lookup.
What are property rates in Rajarajeshwari Nagar?
Official guidance values
These come from the 2023 gazette (Jayanagar book). Divide by 10.764 for per sq ft.
| Line | Guidance value (₹/sq m) | Per sq ft (approx.) |
|---|---|---|
| Kenchenahalli, Mysore Road frontage | 1,20,000 | 11,148 |
| Ganakallu village to Uttarahalli–Kengeri road | 1,11,000 | 10,312 |
| Kenchenahalli housing society layouts (range) | 66,000–1,10,000 | 6,132–10,219 |
| Kenchenahalli housing society layouts (most common) | 75,000–80,000 | 6,968–7,432 |
| Pattanagere, Kengeri–Uttarahalli road | 64,680 | 6,009 |
| Kenchenahalli village | 55,800 | 5,184 |
| Apartment lines (named buildings; many at 50,200) | 34,500–60,200 | 3,205–5,593 |
| Ganakallu | 30,000 | 2,787 |
The gazette lists dozens of society layouts by number, so the exact row for your plot matters. Kaveri can also add floor, amenity and parking amounts for flats.
Market prices
ANAROCK's April 2026 report put Rajarajeshwari Nagar's average launch value at ₹7,800 per sq ft in Q4 2025. It recorded 2,200 units launched between 2021 and 2025, 18% of its West-zone launches, mostly high-end (ANAROCK). Knight Frank doesn't track RR Nagar. A launch value isn't a resale price.
Rents
We didn't find a consultant rent figure for RR Nagar itself. ANAROCK's nearby Mysore Road 2BHK range was ₹20,000 to ₹26,000 a month in Q1 2026; treat it as context only.
What's being built
Taluk totals from the RERA register are too broad to isolate RR Nagar, and the register has no locality field. Use our RERA project review guide before you book.
Is there a metro in Rajarajeshwari Nagar?
Yes. The Purple Line runs along Mysore Road on the area's northern edge. Its full 43.49 km route to Challaghatta has run since 9 October 2023 (The Hindu, news).
| Line | Nearby stations (station names per news reports) | Status, 19 Oct 2026 |
|---|---|---|
| Purple Line | Rajarajeshwari Nagar, Jnanabharathi, Nayandahalli | Running |
Much of RR Nagar sits a fair distance south of Mysore Road, so time the walk or feeder ride from your gate. Our metro lines guide covers the rest.
Where does Rajarajeshwari Nagar get its water?
RR Nagar is one of the eight old zones covered by Cauvery Stage 5, built for villages added to the city in 2007. By May 2026, about 1.15 lakh of an estimated 1.8 lakh buildings in those villages were connected (The Hindu, news). Supply varies by building, so ask for the BWSSB connection and recent bills. Our Cauvery Stage 5 guide explains how.
Is Rajarajeshwari Nagar flood-prone?
Some points are. The GBA's 2026 pre-monsoon circular named Rajarajeshwari Nagar among the locations flagged, alongside Silk Board, Madiwala and Panathur 'S' Cross (The Hindu, news). In April 2026, the West City Corporation had 48 of the city's 101 listed flood-prone locations, the most of any corporation (The New Indian Express, news).
RR Nagar is hilly in parts, so low streets and plots near drains matter more than the area name. See our lake and drain checks and flood-prone areas map.
Worked examples
These use published figures and illustrative prices.
Worked example 1: a new flat at ANAROCK's figure
A 1,200 sq ft flat at ₹7,800 per sq ft on a ₹50,200 per sq m apartment line.
| Step | Calculation | Result |
|---|---|---|
| Price | 1,200 × ₹7,800 | ₹93,60,000 |
| Guidance value | 1,200 ÷ 10.764 × ₹50,200 | ₹55,96,433 |
| Price ÷ guidance value | 93,60,000 ÷ 55,96,433 | 1.67 |
| Charges at 7.6% | 7.6% of ₹93,60,000 | ₹7,11,360 |
Worked example 2: a society plot agreed below the floor
A 30 × 40 ft (1,200 sq ft) society plot on an ₹80,000 per sq m line, agreed at ₹85,00,000.
| Step | Calculation | Result |
|---|---|---|
| Guidance value | 1,200 ÷ 10.764 × ₹80,000 | ₹89,18,618 |
| Charges on guidance value | 7.6% of ₹89,18,618 | ₹6,77,815 |
| Charges on price | 7.6% of ₹85,00,000 | ₹6,46,000 |
| Extra you pay | ₹6,77,815 − ₹6,46,000 | ₹31,815 |
| 110% income-tax test | ₹85,00,000 × 110% = ₹93,50,000 | Guidance value is within it |
Worked example 3: a 1,200 sq ft site on three lines
| Line | Guidance value (₹/sq m) | Site value | Charges at 7.6% |
|---|---|---|---|
| Kenchenahalli village | 55,800 | ₹62,20,736 | ₹4,72,776 |
| Society layout (common row) | 80,000 | ₹89,18,618 | ₹6,77,815 |
| Mysore Road frontage | 1,20,000 | ₹1,33,77,926 | ₹10,16,722 |
The Mysore Road frontage is valued 2.15 times the village line.
The HOME check for Rajarajeshwari Nagar (our framework)
| Check | Question | Where to check | Red flag |
|---|---|---|---|
| Housing society title | Is the chain from the society's allotment to today complete, and is the khata in order? | Allotment letter, sale deeds, khata | Missing society release or a B-khata you weren't told about |
| Outflow | Where does rain water go from this street? | Visit after rain, drain maps | Low plot at the bottom of a slope |
| Metro walk | How long to Rajarajeshwari Nagar or Jnanabharathi station? | Walk or ride it at peak hour | More than 20 minutes with no feeder |
| Edge | Is the plot near Kengeri, where GBA ends? | PIN, ward, khata | Khata issuer unclear |
Score each check green, amber or red. Two reds and you should walk away or renegotiate. Our guide to A-khata, B-khata and e-khata explains the khata side.
Rajarajeshwari Nagar buyer's checklist
- [ ] Confirm the ward and khata.
- [ ] Find the exact society layout row on Kaveri.
- [ ] Get the society title chain checked by a lawyer.
- [ ] Work out the price-to-guidance ratio.
- [ ] Time the trip to the nearest Purple Line station.

- [ ] Visit after heavy rain, especially on low streets.
- [ ] Review RERA filings for a new project.
What mistakes do buyers make in Rajarajeshwari Nagar?
- Assuming all society layouts share a rate. Rows range from ₹66,000 to ₹1,10,000 per sq m.
- Skipping the society title. Older co-operative allotments need a full chain.
- Taking "near the metro" literally. Many streets are a feeder ride away.
- Mixing up RR Nagar and Kengeri. Kengeri is mostly outside GBA.
Legal and tax note
This is general information. Ask a CA about income-tax rules on price and guidance value, and a property lawyer about the society title, khata and approvals before you pay an advance.
